TAKE FLIGHT, A Kinetic Art Project

Clearly illustrated guide to build a balanced kinetic sculpture, of birch plywood and stainless steel, that glides around slowly with the motion of ambient air in a room. - Clear instructions and material selection guide - Traceable full scale templates with matchlines - Examples of steaming and bending plywood - Illustrations of forming steel rod and balancing tips - Great project for individuals or parent & child teams - Educational, challenging, inspiring and fun to build "This is a wonderful parent & child project or just to make it for yourself or as a gift. The hands-on experience of making the sculpture and understanding the physics in balancing it just right is rewarding in itself.
